First Pistol XD-40SC
First of all hello to every one... I am new to the site and new to Pistol ownership. (I just bought a XD-40SC with Trijicon Night sights). I am a prior Marine and have handled many rifles and pistols however this is my first Pistol that has belonged to me. I do have a solid experience handling pistols and rifles but my knowledge is limited to physical handling, shooting and safety so I have many questions. Also even tho I belong to many forums sites (Best way to get reliable info/opinions if you can decipher between the salesman) this is my first post and I know many sites have rules about how to post and where to post so if I have screwed up please let me know. As well as direct me as to how I can not repeat any mistakes I may make. Any how.
My most important question is. Which type of ammo should I buy for My newly aqquired pistol? I have been doing a lot of reading and have seen a lot of people like the HST and the Gold Dots but what grains should I go with. I was thinking about getting a box each of the 155 165 and the 180 of each of the 2 previously mentioned brands and feeling them out. Keep in mind it is a Subcompact if it makes a difference.
But if you guys tell me to try some different weights I will take that into consideration. Also I do believe in practicing with what your going to keep in the gun so thats why I am not concerned with any FMJ for now. Till I am running out of Chedda that is. THanks in advance.
